    I truly love this 6 TB NAS (network hard drive) in that it is also able to connect a USB 3.0 Hub which can then share multiple USB memory devices (memory sticks and USB based hard drives) to your LAN network. I fully verified that this works just great.

    The WD 6TB Cloud Drive was very easy to set-up, it automatically backs up my computers, portable devices, & cell phones. You can setup several users or just one. This is very convenient because each person can have their own password & the data isn't combined with other users. Great value for the product. It's quiet & has a small LED light on the front that lets you know when it's in a passive or active state.

    Bought similar Seagate unit first but returned it when encountering lots of network configuration issues. Brought the Seagate back and got the WD which configured easily on my ethernet-based system. Would have been 5 stars except for issues that iTunes has EVERY time I start my MacPro....it cannot find the iTunes Library file. So, I have to relink the drive to iTunes whenever I do a cold start.

    I wish I had this earlier. Having your own cloud and accessories to files, photos, audio and data makes the old way of accessing and transferring a thing of the past.

    My laptop was approaching the danger point in terms of used memory and I needed something to offload pictures and videos to. The space for the cost is great Accessing the data easy and can be done from almost any device. The only negative I can think of is the wireless data transfer over seemed a little sluggish. Aside from that it works great for our family.
